For Joey Philion, surviving the fire was only the beginning. 
 
 
 
On the morning of March 10th, 1988, in Orillia, Ontario, a house fire engulfed fourteen-year-old Joey Philion in flames. He suffered third degree burns on ninety-five percent of his body. Doctors didn't think he would make it through the night.

The Devil Wears Rothko - Inside...

Barry Avrich

The Devil Wears Rothko charts the explosive demise of Knoedler Gallery, New York’s oldest and most prestigious art galleries with detailed and salacious insight into one of the world’s largest art frauds. 
 
From the moment an eccentric woman walked into the Knoedler Gallery with a Mark Rothko painting, everyone was fooled. For the next ten years, she—along with a group out of Hollywood central casting—ran a $80 million forgery ring through Knoedler Gallery, selling or consigning forty expertly crafted counterfeits they claimed to be the works of Robert Motherwell, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko, and others.  
 
The acclaimed documentary, Made You Look (2020), attests to the explosive investigative work and storytelling of Avrich. The Devil Wears Rothko utilizes these talents all the more effectively, featuring new information, evidence, and inside stories on how an eccentric art dealer, master forger, and two cunning con artists managed to fool the world of art over a period of ten years. Among these individuals were billionaire art collectors, journalists, and esteemed art appraisers. By the time the house of cards finally fell, the Hammer family owned Knoedler Gallery and a dozen collectors had been conned into buying over $80 million in fake art.  
 
As the world continues to be intrigued by this case, The Devil Wears Rothko exposes such an unimaginable cast of characters and villains that even Hollywood would struggle to invent.

Most Controversial Cases of the...

Editors Charles River

It reads like a modern day Lifetime movie: two talented, popular and wealthy men both fall in love with the same beautiful but somewhat tarnished girl. One had a long history of mental illness, the other was considered an architectural genius. The inevitable showdown, complete with a very public murder, took place in one of the most fashionable restaurants in the world. Although it reads like a movie or soap opera, it was an all too true story that culminated with the 1907 “trial of the century.” 
There are few cases in American history as well known as Sacco and Vanzetti, and perhaps none of them were as controversial or socially charged as the trials against the two Italian immigrants in the early 20th century. The two avowed anarchists were ultimately tried and executed for murder and armed robbery, but the case said as much about the society trying them as it did about their guilt or innocence.  
There has been no shortage of shocking crimes and trials that generated frenzied coverage across America, but few can lay claim to “crime of the century” like the murder carried out by Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb in 1924. While studying as young adults at the prestigious University of Chicago, Leopold and Loeb devised a meticulous plot to kidnap and murder a child while managing to get away with ransom money, thereby perpetrating what they considered a “perfect crime.” The crime was horrific enough, but the trial brought even more attention to the case, and it touched on several crucial issues. 
Charles Lindbergh had spent the first 30 years of his life escaping multiple plane crashes, becoming a hero across the world, and starting a family, but his luck ran out in an awful way in March of 1932. Tragically, the other major life event associated with Charles Lindbergh besides his historic transatlantic flight was “the crime of the century.” On March 1, 1932, 20 month old Charles, Jr. was kidnapped right out of his crib.

Hell's Angels - The Gang's...

Vines Graener

1. The Labor Day Run
For the Hell’s Angels, the Labor Day Run was their crowning event—an annual spectacle of chaos and hedonism. It was a time for drinking, fighting, unrestrained indulgence, and drugs. The event could attract anywhere from a couple hundred to a thousand bikers, all coming together for a weekend of pure debauchery. It wasn’t uncommon for the festivities to spiral out of control with violence, reckless behavior, and, in some cases, random fornication.
2. The Hell's Angels Emblem
The Hell’s Angels are instantly recognizable by their iconic emblem: a winged skull wearing a motorcycle helmet. This patch, often sewn onto the back of a sleeveless denim jacket, is a mark of belonging and defiance. Members typically sport long, wild hair and thick beards, embracing a rugged, untamed look. As a statement of both style and practicality, their belts are sometimes made from motorbike chains—useful not only as accessories but also as makeshift weapons when necessary.
3. Oakland: The Heart of the Hell's Angels
By 1965, Oakland had firmly established itself as the epicenter of the Hell’s Angels, with the city acting as a base for their growing empire. However, tensions were rising when the Diablos, a rival gang, made a move to challenge the Angels. The conflict escalated after a lone Angel was brutally attacked by the Diablos, prompting the Hell’s Angels to take matters into their own hands. In a swift act of retaliation, the Angels hunted down and beat each member of the Diablo gang, ultimately forcing them to disband.
